What you are doing is correct, but to get the P&L on that chart to reflect the MES, you need to enter the Currency Value per Tick for the MES symbol and not for the ES. Refer to the information here:
Chart Settings: Updating Currency Value per Tick for Trade Symbol

Whatever symbol is in the Trade and Current Quote Symbol field is the symbol that is sent to the exchange for the trade. Refer to the information here:
Chart Settings: Trade and Current Quote Symbol (text box) (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Symbol >> Symbol menu)
